Raiders Worked Out 3 Players Including QB Keith Wenning & LB Beniquez Brown

According to Adam Caplan, the Raiders worked out three players on Monday including QB Keith Wenning, WR Rodney Smith, and LB Beniquez Brown.

Wenning, 25, is a former sixth-round pick of the Ravens back in 2014. He was unable to make the teamโ€™s final 53-man roster coming out of the preseason during his rookie year but was later added to teamโ€™s practice squad.

Baltimore wound up signing Wenning to a future/reserve contract but was cut loose shortly after last yearโ€™s draft. The Bengals later signed him to a contract, only to cut him loose coming out of the preseason.

Wenning was on and off of the Bengalsโ€™ active roster last year. He has worked out for the Lions, Packers, and Colts since becoming a free agent.

He has yet to appear in an NFL game.

Brown, 23, originally signed with the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of Mississippi State. He signed a three-year, $1.62 million rookie contract and was set to make $450,000 this seasonย when he was waived coming out of the preseason.

Since becoming a free agent, Brown has worked out for the Chiefs, Buccaneers, Chargers, Packers, and Colts but has yet to receive an offer.

During his three-year college career, Brown accumulated 200 total tackles, 22.5 tackles-for-loss, six sacks, three interceptions, four pass defenses, and two fumble recoveries.
